Overview

The nVent E2PBGXM Type 12 deep pushbutton enclosure is a 14-gauge steel enclosure designed for 22.5mm pushbuttons and switches in industrial control applications. Constructed from continuous welded and ground smooth steel seams with a gray ANSI 61 polyester powder paint finish inside and out, it provides robust protection against falling dirt and dripping water per NEMA/EEMAC Type 12 and IEC 60529 IP65 standards. The enclosure features a 3.50-inch (89 mm) depth to accommodate additional pushbutton contact blocks, enabling more complex control configurations. Factory-stamped 4-way pushbutton holes support 22.5mm components, while the removable 14-gauge white-finished panel includes weldnuts for secure mounting. Captivated cover screws thread into sealed wells to prevent loosening, and an oil-resistant gasket ensures environmental sealing. External welded-on mounting brackets simplify installation, and a grounding stud on the body provides electrical bonding. The enclosure measures 5.12" (130 mm) high, 2.75" (70 mm) wide, and 3.50" (89 mm) deep, with mounting dimensions of 5.62" x 1.88" (143 x 48 mm). Certified to UL 508A, cUL per CSA C22.2 No. 94, and CSA File Number 42186, the E2PBGXM is ideal for indoor industrial environments requiring durable, code-compliant enclosures.
